Every Council needs to update their Domestic Animal Management Plan (DAMP) in 2025.

We're asking for your feedback on dogs and cats, which are the animals covered in the DAMP.

Consultation and community engagement

Community members, domestic animal businesses, community groups, industry stakeholders and partners can provide their feedback and ideas from 11 April 2025 to 9 May 2025. All feedback will be considered as a part of this process.

Get involved:

What can be included in a DAMP?

  • How we manage domestic animal control (dogs and cats only, not livestock or wildlife)
  • Responsible pet ownership
  • Strategies to mitigate dog attacks
  • Educational and enforcement campaigns
